Bet You Didn’t Think *this* Baby Stuff Existed?
It’s no surprise that you buy your twins seven beach balls, five sun hats, six pairs of sunglasses or have three of the same sweatshirt lying around. They’re your kids and kids, well, we tend to spoil ‘em. But there are some unnecessary, ridiculous parenting items (for our benefit) that truly aren’t worth the money. [...]
Lend a Hand
Your day-to-day itinerary is probably chalk full of activities and responsibilities that keep you running from one place to the next, remembering what to do tomorrow and checking off what you’ve already done today. But, in the event that you do have time to spare while the twins are asleep or at school, why not [...]
Bye Bye, Preboarding…
Back in January, we published an in-depth piece about the challenges of flying with twins, a task that demands high attention, lots of preparation and an extreme amount of patience. For parents, traveling with twins just got a little harder – at least for those of you that choose to fly United. This week it [...]
Teacher’s Pet
For those of you with twins that are old enough, school is winding down and they’re in the home stretch of homework, testing and early mornings. But before the bell rings for the last time until Fall, make sure your twins say “thank you” for a job well done to the Mr. or Mrs. that [...]
Chocolate Chip Cookie Day?
We recently blogged about a ‘cleaning’ holiday, surprised that it had made national attention. But, I think we topped it! This month we also celebrated the ever-delicious “Chocolate Chip Cookie Day.” Huh? As ABCNews reports, this day happened quite by accident (and by a MA native, no less!): Ruth Wakefield was preparing her traditional butter [...]
Memorial Day: Festivities & Giving Thanks
Memorial Day is so much more than an official start to summer, though we do love our BBQ’s, beach outings and boating, don’t we? It’s a time to honor our fallen heroes that have dedicated their lives to our freedom, and it’s important that our twins understand just how special that is. We thought it [...]
These Shoes Were Made For Walking
It may seem just like yesterday that your twins took their first steps, slowly but surely making their way from your husband’s arms to your own. Now, you probably can’t get them to stop moving. The ever-loved Crocs just came out with their newest kids collection and we’re oohing-and-ahhing over the bright colors and nifty [...]
Twins and Tantrums
We may want to believe that our twins are little angels. And for the most part, they are. But the tantrum train is inevitable – sometimes, they truly just cry over spilled milk. So how do you handle double the fuss and keep a peaceful composure while dealing with your twins’ triggers? Kimberley Becker of [...]
Water Babies
Summer is fast approaching and soon, our water babies are anxious to get into the nearest pool or beach water they can find. But if you haven’t signed your twins up already, water safety and swimming lessons should be priority #1. Aside from just learning how to be in the water, it’s paramount that our [...]
A ‘Cleaning’ Holiday. Who Knew?
This week, on May 10th, we had “Clean Up Your Room Day.” Did you ever think the day would come? I mean, we know you declare a “clean up your room day” once and awhile to your own twins, but now it’s practiced all over at the same time. HuffPost: Healthy Living offers some great tips [...]
